[Q] No Cloud Printing - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble

I have a Tab Pro 8.4 and am unable to get Google Cloud Print to function properly, I have installed it but whenever I try to print, a dialog offers to save the file to PDF or I can switch to "All Printers" which never finds any printers. I suspect that maybe some other app is installed that has taken over printing but I can't figure out which app that might be or how to uninstall it. Any advice?

HP Print Service Plugin

This service is installed with stock firmware. How can it be used?
I want to be able to print webpages from Opera or UC Browser or even a text file through ES Explorer. If I click the "Share" option there is nothing to click that would transfer the page to the network officejet that I use. The printer is seen normally as a network printer from my laptop.
The only way I can use this plugin is through Polaris Office. Is it useless after all? Should I use another program like "Printershare"?

The HP Print Service can only be used from certain applications (Polaris Office, the stock internet browser & stock email apps, etc) and is accessed via the menu button, then selecting "Print".
To enable printing from ANY application, you'd need to install another app, which would enable you to print via the "Share" button from most other apps. I use the HP ePrint app, but PrinterShare should work too.

Hi, I hope I'm not hijacking.
I have a bunch of HP printers networked at the office. However when I try to print directly say from S-Note, Select print > Google Print > pick 1 of the detected printers, after some time I get HP Print service plugin - Unavailable
If I go via HP ePrint however it works (by sharing jpg to HP ePrint)but it's quite slow..

How To Transfer Files Between Cloud Services In Android

Time and again, everyone wants to know, how to transfer files between their cloud back-up services without having to download them and upload again manually, instead they just have to tap one and then the second to just transfer all the stuff. If you’re on a Computer, doing such thing is a very easy job and much of the times you have to do it from PC, but under some circumstances you may have to transfer data from Cloud services using your Android device and the task isn’t that easy as it seems, however, not difficult either.
Rainbow is an app that allows users of Android to directly transfer files between Cloud Storage services. However, this app is still in its developmental process, so there are chances of bugs which isn’t a big issue and if you don’t find your Cloud Service on it, go to XDA Forums and vote your Cloud Service in the poll. Now, let’s see how we can install and use this app.
Rainbow-Home
How to Install and Use Rainbow:
Download and Install Rainbow from Google Play Store.
Once you have installed it, open it.
Make sure that you have a working Wi-fi connection.
You will see a list of Cloud Services that are available, tap on the one you want.
You’ll be promoted to the Log-in screen, Log-in using your account.
Accept the administrative permissions to successfully connect to the service.
After you have configured all the accounts you wish to manage using this app, tap the Data Transfer tab
You’ll see the list of accounts that you have configured, including the Android device.
Tap on the one from where you want to transfer the data, you won’t be able to see any thumbnails.
Once you tap a file, a pop-up containing two options, Delete and Copy, will emerge.
Tap copy to copy the item to clipboard or delete it if you want.
Now all that is left is to open the other Service and paste the copied data there.
It will take a little time, so please be patient.

Take a note and access to installed apps

Hi guys,
These might be stupid questions but i cant figure out how to access the notes i have taken on the watch using the Take a note voice command. Is there any way to access the watch apps besides saying start as a voice command?
To access apps I go to the main menu (with all the commands and settings at the bottom) and the last entry is "Start..." and selecting that will give you the option to open installed wear apps.
Wear Mini Launcher is a great way to access apps on your watch.

The notes are in your gmail in text form and a voice recording. It was strange to find the first time.
Mine show in Keep: "OK Google, Start Keep" or selecting it from the menu.
Additionally mine show in Keep on my phone, not in Gmail.

[Q] Google Cloud Print not working?

I'm trying to print from my Note and having some problems. On my work PC I have Google Cloud Printing set up via Chrome. It works fine when I try to print from my phone (an LG G3) but when I try to print from the Note I get a "Printing document has failed" when trying to print via Google Docs and a similar error when printing with Microsoft Word app on the tablet.
Anyone else have this problem? Any work around?

I have no workaround for ya. I can't even find the print settings in our device settings thanks to Samsung's custom settings format.
Edit: found the printer setup on the tablet under Connections-->Networks-->Other Networks
I would suggest using the WiFi printing app published on the play store by ur printer manufacturer. That's what I had to do.

Gallery App Suggestions?

Hi
I have been using Quickpic for like 8 years on my Androids, but since Cheetah mobile got a hold of it, it went down hill. I have tried to use Samsung's built in gallery app, but it simply cannot cope with stuff being deleted using other apps in the system - put simply it will forever show either empty or complete thumbnails for the items that have been been removed from the filesystem - quickpic used to update instantly reacting to live changes on the underlying filesystem.
I use a drone with my note, and use the drone's own software to manage its pics/vids so its totally unacceptable for my to have to delete the content using the drone app, and then also delete the non-existing content from the samsung gallery just to have it quick showing thumbnails for stuff that is no longer existing on the ruddy device. Has anyone pointed out to Samsung that its 2019 ?!
So Suggestions for a gallery app that will react to changes (additions and deletions) in the underlying filesystem)?
The only way, in my understanding, for this to happen, is that your drone file deletion is malfunctioning.
Your phone finds cached photo's information, and showing it to you.
That means that your drone leaves leftovers after deletion. That is a security/privacy risk and also take up some storage from your SD card.
I delete pics and videos all the time from the phone directly and also using my laptop and never had any problems you describe, so previous poster may be right about drone being the culprit. Also I do remember I had some issues when all my pics were backed up to cloud and sometimes they would go out of sync, where phone would think the picture was in cloud, but wasn't there anymore, but I stopped using cloud services long time ago and don't remember details.
I use the paid version of F-Stop.
Gives you a ton of control.

Beside the stock Gallery, I also have an old Motorola Gallery on my Note 10+. I just carry the apk. file from phone to phone it's simple and works fine.
